1.3.2. Assigning a Player Channel or the Software
Player
Introduction
There are several methods to assign a player channel to the Control Panel. Some of the
methods will directly open an instance of the Control Panel. Others are used when the
Control Panel is already open.
• Assign a channel from the Channel Explorer.
• Assign a channel from the Player field in the Control Panel.
The ShuttlePRO device can take the control of a player channel or Software Player
assigned to a Control Panel.

How to Assign a Player Channel or the Software
Player from the Player Field
